NSP’s multi-session training series provide more in-depth learning, and often include follow-up consultation tailored to the needs of your organization. Some programs are exclusively for executive directors/CEOs or senior leaders, while others require participation from agency teams so that learning is spread across the organization.
These programs are offered periodically. You must apply and be accepted in order to participate.
